Terre di Talamo is on Tuscany’s southern coast, in Maremma, across from the Argentario Gulf. The winery is owned by the savvy Marco Bacci (Renieri, Castello di Bossi), which is why I even know about this and have the chance to offer my first ever Morellino di Scansano.
Whether it’s Montalcino, Maremma, or Chianti, Marco’s wines always offer a tremendous sense of place, giving this wine a great expression of the rocky, clay soils from which it was drawn, as well as the warm, coastal environment that impacted it along the way. In a hot year in Tuscany, Marco Bacci’s 2015 Morellino di Scansano was made entirely in stainless steel, giving it a supercharge in aromatic left as well as approachability and early drinkability.
Morellino is the locals’ term for Sangiovese; I had it the other day with a Nicholas Burger from B&R and got a chance to enjoy it for about five whole minutes before there was a figurative fire to put out. It was certainly a treat though.
Lots of inviting aromas of black cherry, violet, blueberries and spice. The wine attacks you from the first sip with its vibrancy and energy. It’s ready to go, I promise you that. A full-bodied, robust mouthfeel with generous dollops of blue and black fruits, good tannic structure and great balance. Leaves a pleasant aftertaste that has you coming back for another sip time and time again.

This is a gorgeous red with so much mushroom and black cherry aromas and flavors. Full body, velvety texture and a flavorful finish. Dusty second texture. Delicious Morellino. Drink or hold.

Anne Sery describes her Trousse Chemise Cabernets as an ode to the Left Bank and her winemaking roots. It’s a beautiful and fresh Cabernet with aromas that leap from the glass with of black raspberry, violets, and creme de liquor notes. The mouth gives generous amounts of juicy black fruits at the core with hints of baking spice and a smooth, savory finish. This is a terrific partner for just about anything from hard cheese, to poultry, summer salads, you name it!
In the 2020 vintage in Gevrey-Chambertin, yields were super low and temperatures were hotter than most Burgundian winemakers are accustomed. Many picked too late when the sugars were high and the fruit really ripe, but that was not the play. Still, Ann remained as cool in those hot temps as she did so many years ago in Napa, concentrating more on acid levels than sugars and picking at just the right time. This wine is absolutely singing – it’s an age-worthy beauty that should be even better in 4-7 years.

Since the late 1990’s Penner-Ash has been viewed as one of Oregon’s top wineries making gorgeous wines in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. In the 2021 vintage considered to be one of Oregon’s all-time great years, the 2021 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir that Lynn crafted is gorgeous, a silky tightly woven number that mixes red and black fruits with some sage and baking spices and a savory finish. It’s got some nice weight to it and structure which suggests it’ll age well for the next 10-15 years though it’s already drinking beautifully in its youth.

Avignonesi’s wines took Nicholas Wines by storm last year with their ‘Grifi’ SuperTuscan, a highly rated, highly delicious bottle that put the winery firmly on my radar. It’s a great bottle of wine, but at this price – it completely overdelivers which is exactly what you’re looking for.
